And whilst on the subject of web pages and forums, check the source code of this page. About halfway down you'll find this . . .

it never fails to amaze me, just how much MS can screw up Internet Explorer
if I put the style for this div in as an inline attribute, it's fine
if I use a CLASS in an external CSS file, it's fine
if however I do the sensbile thing and give this UNIQUE div an ID formatted by an external CSS file
the internal content ceases to define the height, it overflows instead
this means the footer appears in front of the main content

it's EXACTLY the same code, ffs

it gets better - if I ALSO use the relevant id here the cascade fails
the style from the external CSS file takes precendence over the inline attribute and IT STILL GOES WRONG
I've had to give the div an id that refers to nothing in the CSS file so the JS has something to reference

this is a new bug/feature (arf) introduced in IE8 - it was fine in 7 and 6

I can't comment on the accuracy of what's being said, but I do like the last sentence.
